The FASoC Datasheet Scrubber is a utility that scrubs through large sets of PDF datasheets/documents in order to extract key circuit information. The information gathered is used to build a database of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) IP that can be used to build larger SoC in the FASoC design. More information here.

1. Ensure your machine has the correct python version and all of the python modules required to run through the datasheet scrubber.

   • Requirements: Python 3.6 (packages pandas, scipy, matplot, matplotlib, pdfminer.six, pypdf2, request, lxml, tabula-py, sklearn, regex, keras, tensorflow, pdf2image, pillow, pytesseract, numpy, opencv-python, gensim, nltk). Python versions below 3.6 are not supported.

2. Ensure you have ssh keys setup for github. Instructions for generating and adding ssh keys can be found here.

3. Clone the Datasheet Scrubber repository

   git clone git@github.com:idea-fasoc/datasheet-scrubber.git

The FASoC database contains more than 700,000 records of Integrated Circuits (ICs) components collected from Digikey.

In order to access a sample of this collection, visit our web application or proceed here.

Datasheet scrubber includes three steps of category recognition, table extracton and text extraction.

an example of how to use the table extractor can be found here.
